Hot peppers did great this year. Made a bunch of hot sauce to free up some freezer room. Peppers (tabasco, serrano, jalapeno, scotch bonnet, habanero--about half of them roasted first), onion, garlic, salt, vinegar (including some homemade red wine vinegar). Put it in the blender, simmer it on the stove for a while, strain and jar. I didn’t strain it this time. I like a thicker sauce.

Looks very tasty.
Working my way thru a big bottle of Chipotle Tabasco currently.
Have a batch of Serranos I'm getting ready to ferment before turning into hot sauce.

Looks delicious, involuntary mouth watering lol. What kind of pepper variety would you recommend for a newbie?...my preference is less heat, more pepper flavor. For instance store bought pepper sauces, my favorites are mild offerings like Cholula, Crystal Brand, Tabasco Green etc.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Looks good!
Is it thin like Tobassco / Louisiana / TX Pete?
Or thicker?

If you strain it, it's thin like TX Pete. I like it a little goopier, so I didn't strain.
And I didn't add water this time, so it is pretty vinegary.
I don't know what to recommend for a newbie. I've just been playing around for a few years with the peppers from the garden. They've been growing really well--unlike my tomatoes. This batch is pretty hot but not too hot to enjoy. It'll make you sweat a little.

Do you water bath can these or is it shelf stable? Or do you need to keep all those jars in fridge. Looks delicious!

Never made my own hot sauce, Tiger Sauce & Cholula are my current favorites. I did make Hickory sauce from the recipe here on the 'Fire though it's more of a barbecue sauce, I'm on my second round and I cut the amount of black pepper by half.

I didn't water bath can. I'd expect the vinegar to keep it pretty shelf stable, but I'm refrigerating anyway My favorite off the shelf is El Yucateco Habanero.
Gotta say this batch I made is darn tasty.
